The Young Protectors: Engaging The Enemy Chapter Two—Page 47

Hmmm… Yet again, you are like “I don’t have to explain anything” and then you’re all like “Blah, blah, blah, blah…” I’m beginning to think that your words are not to be trusted, Mr. Annihilator!

I had a fantastic time at BENT-CON 2013 this weekend, mostly because so many of you stopped by to say hello! It was so awesome to hear you’re enjoying The Young Protectors and to see your smiling faces and get a chance to finally chat in person! Hopefully, those of you near Austin, TX will be able to come to the Webcomic Rampage in a few weeks! My first ever convention in Texas! 😀

In other news, Winona Nelson and I are going to be interviewed on the radio this Thursday, 11/14 at 4:00PM Eastern Standard Time. The show is called Woman Stirred Radio and you can listen to it on the Internet here. You can also call in with questions and comments, which I hope y’all will do, at this number: (802) 454-7762. It’s my very first radio interview so I hope to hear some friendly voices! 🙂

Oh, and y’all were so super-helpful in coming up with cool topics for the upcoming POWERS and ROMANCE TYP Trading Cards, I’d like to ask for you help with the last two card packs — the FIRST-TIME and ORIGIN cards!

The FIRST-TIME CARD is meant reveal “intimate details about a character’s romantic experience, namely their first-time experiences with romance and sex (first kiss, first time in love, first…).” So, to be clear, we’re talking actual first-time experiences here, not interests or likes/dislikes (which will be covered in the ROMANCE cards.)

(Because the trading cards are 2.5″ x 3.5″, there won’t be room for full paragraph answers. So please think of questions/headings that can be answered in a few words or at most a couple sentences. Oh, and remember, that the questions/headings need to apply to EVERY character, not just one, so please make sure they are general enough to do that!)

The ORIGIN CARD is meant to offer “a narration about how a character discovered their powers and chose to be a superhero (or villain!).” My plan is to have a short paragraph describing this, but I’d be very interested in learning specifically what you want to know and, if there’s room, I might also be able to include some of your specific questions!

Special thanks go out to long-time supporters Sara F. (who makes their third generous donation to The Young Protectors!), Megan S., Gayle L., Annika D. and Miranda H.

Big hugs go out to long-time friends Thomas D., and Lisa G. for their super-generous $25 donations! And this makes Thomas’s third and Lisa’s thirty-fourth (!) super-generous donations to this comic!

And finally, superhero-strength hugs go out to new super-friend Steven K. and long-time super-friend Christopher D. for their amazingly generous $50 donations! And this makes Christopher’s twenty-second (!!) amazingly generous donation to The Young Protectors! Thank you very, very much Steven and Christopher! You are ROCK STARS! 😀

Thank you all so much for your generous support!

So! Looks like The Annihilator’s monologuing again! What does he mean when he says there a “threats that make the so-called ‘crisis’ look like a child’s tea party”? And what do you think our hero Kyle’s reaction to all this will be?
